However, if I want to set a time for a meeting, I should be using a regular timestamp, rather than a SCHEDULE: property. There doesn't seem to be a way to do this automatically.

Not quite sure if I understand your question but it seems as if you want
to "SCHEDULE" a meeting for a date and time using C-c C-s
Using that key combination after a TODO I usually enter the date then a
space then the time. Also you may enter a duration such as 08:00+2
HTH.
